Re-post for a more self-contained story. The stories of Akuze and Mindoir as lived by Commander Amelia Shepard. Everything that turned her into the ruthless, stubborn, and self-destructive woman that was selected as a Spectre candidate. First chapter is setup. The other two are payoff. Rated M for extreme violence and gore, mainly in Chapter 3 but somewhat in 2. Suicidal themes.

My name is Nathaniel Wolfert. The day everything changed was when I was handed a gun and told to kill someone. This is my story and how I altered the events of the galaxy. OC insert with several other OC's sprinkled in throughout. Sequel is up and running!

Who is Shepard? Where does this power come from? Why is Miranda so interested? Powerful fem!shep. Rated M for language, violence and lemons. Fem!Shep/Miranda.

"'Got to love these bionic limbs.' Her fingers brush over the last of her own skin, before the stump of her thigh turns into smooth metal and carbon fiber. She misses it sometimes, the leg she lost in the war." - Kaidan and Shepard share their phantom pain beneath the stars.

A collection of ficlets for tumblr prompts with several characters from the games. Shepard/Thane; Shepard/Garrus. Chapter 3: A Shakarian Valentine.

While recovering from his lung transplant in Huerta Memorial, Thane is looking forward to joining Shepard in her fight against the Reapers and Cerberus. His wish comes true sooner than he could have expected. Alternate Universe / my headcanon of how Thane's story should have continued in Mass Effect 3.

"And then a shuddering exhale leaves him. Quaking and tear-laced. If Shepard could look she would see the hand covering his eyes and the tremble to his shoulders. She would see in his face that he lied. He always has." - Thane and Shepard. They never knew the truth could hurt this much.

A series of drabbles set in verse on my RP blog where the sheer act of coming back to life was killing Sarah Shepard, so Cerberus used the DNA sequencing of a long extinct race rumored to have enhanced regenerative abilities. It worked, and she recovered in a fraction of the time. She was, however, changed slowly, not showing symptoms until her incarceration on Earth.

When an old enemy suddenly resurfaces, Commander Selena Shepard finds herself thrown into a world she would rather forget, with a woman she thought was dead. Once again, it's up to her to save the galaxy...if she could just keep it together.

The mission is clear: Rescue scientists and their research from Cerberus. A simple distraction from all the death and despair going on in the universe. That Shepard and Tali discover something about Garrus he never wanted them to know is a nice side-effect.

The Normandy crashed on an unknown jungle planet, and Shepard is presumed dead. But she came back from the dead once, and Kaidan refuses to sit around not knowing for sure. But the mass effect relays are broken, Edi isn't running the Normandy, and no one knows for sure if the Reapers are dead. Set right after the end of the game, if Shepard destroyed the Reapers. Strong language.

Kaidan Alenko knew he'd lost the woman he once loved, she'd moved on and he was happy for her. All he needed to do was tell her. This is an out take from my fic Careful What you Wish For, from Kaidan's POV. Previous Shenko, current Shega. A different take on the Apollo Cafe scene. Bioware owns all things ME.

The galaxy has gone to hell and our last dawn approaches. There is no way out of an apocalypse. (Set in ME3. Short stories which may or may not be connected to each other. There may be appearances from ME characters in the future. Enjoy)

This is a story that I will be working on for some time so bear with me and the rating is there because of gore and minor-major sexual themes. This is a story of a Quarian who is going on the standard pilgrimage but nothing will be really standard about her trip. (action, drama, suspense, and tragedy) (Picture credits goes to Wrinki and Nagek)

Shepard's POV over Alchera. Mild language and (obvious) character death

From the beating eye of wrath, Aralakh of Tuchanka, a plot arises in which the Saturan Clan must adhere attention to. As the development grows, one Krogan woman by the name of Saturan Kiri must embark on a journey unlike that of any from her clan has ever experienced, before.

This is a look into the life of doctor Kerry Shepard, head geneticist for the Alliance Navy. She has worked along side each and every race in order to cure some of the deadliest diseases ever seen. Now she has been called upon by the Asari government to help them find a cure for a newly discovered virus that has the possibility of ending all life in the galaxy. Reaperless AU

In the two years since the Normandy was destroyed, Liara has found happiness in the darkness of Illium with the only thing she has left of Shepard.

George Simmons was part of the 10th street reds, fearing his desertion the gang betrayed him, leaving him for dead. Years later he finds himself on the wrong end of a deal with the devil, and with the choice to make everything right - or damn everything to hell. Rated M for violence, language and graphic nature. Slight AU. First Person OC (Not SI). Read and Review!

2185 – Vereen and Ethan's burgeoning romance develops further when Vereen invites him to the best turian steam bath on the Citadel: Polonius Thermae. Warning: contains nudity and interspecies sexual content.

After the events of Mass Effect 1, Commander Shepard chooses to go undercover, leaving the relative safety of Alliance and Citadel space to explore the hostile Terminus systems for a yet-unknown Reaper threat. AU following ME1 events.

Kai Leng runs into Shepard during the Cerberus attack on the Citadel...and it really doesn't go as planned.

After a promotion and a much-needed vacation, Shepard ships back out on active duty. This time, for the first time in her military career, she has to say goodbye to the family she's leaving behind.

An expanded version of that conversation you have with Joker after the fall of Thessia in ME3. I just felt that the responses on the dialogue wheel weren't up to the sheer anger and angst the situation called for. Some Explicit Language, fluff and angst. Shoker.

Shepard has one last chance at life. Without galaxy-ending events sucking Shepard in, she has to do something that she has long since feared; facing her own feelings in all aspects of her life. The loss of her loved ones, her life altering choices and even her own death. Twice fold. And people wanting to collect on their investment. Post ME3.
